    Diamond Aircraft - Light weight with more horsepower
    The functioning of aircrafts is very different from those of automobiles. For a car to reach high speeds there should be a bigger power plant, as bigger as possible. Invention of V8 wasn’t the only stop for bigger car engines. The latest bigger engines found on cars are the W12 and V12 engine found on world’s fastest car Buggati. For cars logic is simple get bigger engine to work and reach high speed. This is not the case with aircrafts. Aircrafts can’t be loaded with bigger displacement engines as it makes the plane heavier and which it instead of going fast slows down. This is the place where aero dynamics comes in. With bigger engines on plane, increases fuel consumption and emission. So there is a need to build something that is a perfect blend of horsepower and aerodynamics. Diamond knows best, how to make  [...]
